It is the only supercar model in the BBA camp.
It is a weather vane that follows the extreme across the times.
Who can resist the temptation of such a being?
Why is it the only supercar?
The engines used in supercars are all mid-mounted design, in the BBA three-factory model, the mid-mounted supercar model is only R8, even if Mercedes-Benz has several models with power performance that does not lose R8, but they are not mid-engines, and can only be regarded as GT sports cars. Therefore, whether it is "di fans" or netizens, the idea that R8 is the only supercar in the BBA is not in the minority (of course, including the editor).
The Audi R8 is Audi's first mid-engine supercar mass-produced, based on the Lamborghini Gallardo development platform, combining Audi's experience in multiple races, V10 engine, full-time four-wheel drive, all-aluminum frame structure, giving the R8 outstanding power performance.
Some people say "The Audi R8 is Lamborghini's hulled calf." "Such a statement is not right, in the case of the same V10 engine more than 400 power, the price is still a lot cheaper, to say that the shell of the maverick is indeed not false." In contrast, the price-performance ratio of R8 is even higher than that of Lambord's Mavericks, but the brand gain can be worse, such as the RS Q8 with the same power as Lamborghini Urus, and the majority of consumers who choose Lamborghini at a price discount of half.
Of course, the previous R8 can be said to be a "shell maverick", but in recent days, according to Audi officials, a model version named "RS" will be launched on the R8 model; as the strongest one of the R8 models. Whether it can surpass the mavericks, whether it can attract consumers with full cost performance, depends on this vote!
The appearance of the new car has not changed much, only for the details of the design has been upgraded, the new aerodynamic kit, but also make the overall shape more dynamic. In addition, according to people familiar with the matter, the most powerful Audi R8 or will be named "V10 Performance RS".
In terms of power, the new car is expected to use a 5.2L V10 engine with a maximum power of 650 horsepower and use rear-wheel drive. Given that Lamborghini has launched the Huracán Tecnica model, it is believed that Audi's strongest "RS R8" must be expected to surpass in terms of technology/cost performance.
In fact, the Audi R8 of the three major first-tier manufacturers has a long reputation, as its legendary supercar, the R8 is built from the FIA GT3 car; almost half of the parts in the R8 car are inherited from the R8 LMS GT3 car. The use of genes deep into the bone marrow; the innate advantage of winning at the starting line, make R8 born different. And the strongest version of the RS model, can it break through itself; surpass the limit and realize the continuation of its own legend? See!
